As COP29 Azerbaijan gets underway, the world gathers once more to confront our climate challenges. The 2024 United Nations Climate Change Conference—commonly known as #COP29—is taking place in Baku, #Azerbaijan, from November 11-22 and brings together global leaders and experts to negotiate critical climate measures under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (#UNFCCC). Topics will cover everything from the New Collective Quantified Goal (#NCQG) to adaptation measures, amidst discussions on Article 6 of the Paris Agreement and the recently launched Climate Finance Action Fund, which aims to direct $1 billion annually towards renewable energy and resilience projects in developing nations. This year, #COP29 takes place against a backdrop of unprecedented extreme weather events—like catastrophic floods in Spain and record-breaking heatwaves across Europe and India. These events are reminders of the urgent need for global cooperation to mitigate climate risks. At Gentian, we’re proud to support this mission by empowering organizations with precise, actionable environmental data. Using advanced AI and high-resolution satellite imagery, we help our clients monitor biodiversity, assess risks, and make data-informed decisions that protect both nature and operations. COP29 represents a pivotal moment for sustainable action, and Gentian stands ready to provide the insights needed to turn ambition into impact. 🌱 🔗: https://cop29.az/en/home #COP29 #UN #ClimateChangeConference #ClimateAction #Sustainability #Biodiversity #Gentian

🌍 From November 11 to 22, global leaders are meeting in Baku at the “Financial COP” to discuss key issues on the climate agenda. The importance of COP29 is immense, as it represents a collective effort to assess progress on global climate goals, adjust policies and create strategies to help combat the climate crisis more effectively. It is an opportunity for developed, emerging and underdeveloped countries to find solutions that meet the specific needs of each region, promoting a joint response to global warming.   In addition to financing for emerging economies, which seeks to increase support from US$ 100 billion to between US$ 500 billion and US$ 1 trillion, COP 29 covers topics such as:   - Energy transition: Expanding the use of renewable energies and reducing dependence on fossil fuels, which are essential for reducing emissions and curbing global warming. - Emissions targets: Re-evaluate national targets, in an approach that aims to keep the global temperature increase below 1.5 ºC. - Climate adaptation: Implement measures to help vulnerable communities cope with extreme events such as heatwaves and heavy rainfall. - COP 29 is a decisive moment to align efforts and move towards a sustainable and resilient future. 🌱 Know more about the COP 29 here: https://cop29.az/en/home    #GreenTransition #EnergyManagement #COP29 #Sustainability

The impacts of climate change are increasing in frequency and intensity. According to the World Economic Forum’s 2024 Global Risks Report, nearly half of the world’s population is vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. 🌿 To build stronger resilience, there is an increasing emphasis on integrating innovation into #climateadaptation projects to prepare communities to respond to the challenges posed by a changing climate, especially among the most vulnerable ones. From groundwater monitoring in India to sustainable charcoal in Angola.

Andrew Griffiths great words on your live just now, "Every Conference of the Parties (COP) should be treated as the last COP". I couldn't agree more! 🐎 Ill be tuning in live over the weekend and look forward to sharing outcomes and sharing on pro-active 'Call To Actions' for businesses following this years COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan. Heading into 2025, I would like to see: 🌐 Stronger national commitments on climate financing 🌐 Actual proof of phasing down of fossil fuels We've called it a Climate Emergency for far too long, and the evidence is now undeniable—unfolding in devastating ways worldwide.

The 29th Session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, COP29, will be held in Azerbaijan this year. The decision in this regard was adopted at the Plenary Session of COP28 held in Dubai on December 11, last year. Baku will be the center of the world for two weeks and the city will welcome approximately thousands of foreign guests. At the same time, this event is a platform where world leaders, government officials, scientists, global companies, and NGOs come together to discuss global climate issues. UNDP shares its experience in this field with the Government of Azerbaijan. #TowardsCOP29 #COP29 #ClimateChange #ClimatePromise #ClimateAction #SustainableFuture

From Glasgow to Dubai to Baku: A Three-Country Study of COP Awareness and Climate Change Perceptions As Azerbaijan prepares to host COP29, a unique comparative, comprehensive study initiated by SIAR Research and Consulting Group (Azerbaijan, www.siar.az) within its own CSR programme, offers unprecedented comparative insights across three COP host nations.   This first of its kind research, comparing public perceptions in three different countries reveals how climate consciousness evolves before, during, and after hosting major climate conferences:   -       Azerbaijan's upcoming role as COP29 host in 2024 provides a forward-looking dimension to the research. Here we conducted 500 interviews with sampling error of 4.4% -       The UAE's recent hosting of COP28 in Dubai (2023) offers immediate post-conference insights. In this country we ran 541 interviews with sampling error of 4.2% -       Finally, Scotland's experience with COP26 in Glasgow (2021) adds a retrospective view. And here sample size amounted to 612 with sampling error of 4.0%   The survey has been implemented during October-November months of the year of 2024. Please follow the link to get information on some of the main findings of this unique research conducted by SIAR Research and Consulting Group (Azerbaijan, www.siar.az).
